Today I am grateful for...
...the opportunity to play tourists... returning to Darling Harbour after some 15+ years... and experiencing brand new sights and sounds.
I am also grateful to be sharing this adventure with Mini Me...
I don't think I've ever spent this much time staring at jelly fish...
Isn't this starfish spectacular?
This grumpy looking creature reminded me of my giant plecos... not a memory I particularly wanted to revisit...
It was all going great until we reached this...
How can we call this humane?
Can you see a smile? All I can see is confusion and entrapment...
I felt ill...
I am grateful for having found Nemo...
...and angel fish...
I am also grateful for sights that put a smile on my face...
And this...
And this... THIS definitely put a smile on my face!!
I am grateful for remaining dry during ferry trips across choppy waters...
And succeeding in our mission for FREE Ben & Jerry's ice-cream...
...devoured on Manly Beach...
...as you do... during a storm...
I am also grateful for storm clouds clearing...
...to reveal majestic sights...
I have dreamed so long of seeing a show in the Opera House...
But not this trip... tonight we saw Carmen on the Harbour!!
I am grateful for new friends... who entertained us with tales (and song!) during dinner before escorting us to the venue...
I am also grateful for arriving super early so that we could check out the whole venue...
...and enjoy the sunset...
...and take selfies...
I am also grateful for rain jackets...
How's this for a stage??
Complete with cranes!!
I am grateful for rain clouds passing just in time for the start of the performance...
I am also grateful for fantastic seats with perfect views...
Last but definitely not least, I am insanely grateful to be sharing this experience with special people who mean the world to me...
Life is good.
